At the meeting with Swiss President Viola Amherd, PM Chinh thanked the Swiss
Government for the warm welcome for him and congratulated Switzerland on the
successful organisation of WEF-54, which was attended by nearly 3,000 leaders of
governments and businesses globally.

Both sides expressed their delight at the strong developments in the friendship
and cooperation between the two countries, especially in the fields of economy,
trade, development assistance, culture, and education. They affirmed that
regular contacts and exchanges between leaders and delegations of the two
countries have contributed to strengthening their political trust.

The host said she appreciates Vietnam's outstanding socio-economic development
achievements in recent years, affirming that Vietnam is Switzerland's leading
important economic partner in Southeast Asia. She pledged to continue providing
development aid to Vietnam, with more than 40 projects being implemented in
various fields.

For his part, the Vietnamese PM affirmed that the achievements of the two
countries’ cooperation over the past 50 years prove their effective cooperation,
laying a foundation for the two sides to elevate their relationship in the
coming time.

PM Chinh proposed that the two sides coordinate closely to prepare well for
high-level visits between the two countries’ leaders, thereby reviewing and
evaluating the cooperation results and proposing measures to advance
collaboration.



He thanked the Swiss Government for providing Vietnam with official development
assistance (ODA) which helped Vietnam gain many socio-economic achievements.

He said he hopes more Swiss businesses will come to Vietnam, and the two
countries will enhance cooperation in science-technology, and innovation as well
as security and defence.

The two leaders also agreed to have a flexible approach in negotiating the free
trade agreement between Vietnam and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA)
and the bilateral Investment Protection Agreement to create favourable
conditions and ensure the interests of businesses and investors of the two
countries.

The two leaders affirmed that they will continue to coordinate closely at
regional and international forums. Regarding the East Sea/South China Sea issue,
they agreed on the importance of ensuring freedom of navigation and aviation in
compliance with international law, and resolving disputes by peaceful means on
the basis of international law, especially the 1982 United Nations Convention on
the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS 1982), minimising the impact of geopolitical factors
on supply chains and the movement of goods regionally and globally.



Meeting with the Vietnamese Prime Minister, Secretary-General of UNCTAD Rebeca
Grynspan stressed that UNCTAD always considers Vietnam a model of development,
trust, and optimism in the context of the current volatile world situation.
Personally, as the former Vice President of Costa Rica, she always sees Vietnam
as a model of development and wishes to visit Vietnam.

She shared that on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of UNCTAD this year, it
will organise a global conference and hopes that Vietnam will send leaders to
attend.

At the same time, she expressed her wish that Vietnam will participate and
actively contribute to the UNCTAD Ministerial Conference in 2025.

PM Chinh affirmed that Vietnam highly values the organisation's role in
supporting developing countries, including Vietnam, in the building of
development policies, contributing to maintaining a prosperous life for people.



He hoped that UNCTAD will continue to support Vietnam in all aspects of
development, particularly human resources training.
